Some pages have missing or empty form labels making them difficult to navigate when using a screen reader. This fails WCAG 2.2 success criteria 2.4.6 (Headings and Labels) and 3.3.2 (Labels or Instructions). The empty form label is hidden from view. The following screenshots show with styling applied, and with styling removed so that the form label and red error marker can be seen. We need to identify what this label is (which is part of the Oracle interface, and not our dashboard), and either remove it or add an appropriate form label.

Treated as an accessibility bug.

    Same comment as you saw from Alan and myself around accessibility.

    Regarding your Accessibility question for Classic OAC Dashboards, I looked at your WAVE screenshot and the code highlighted by the WAVE tool and confirmed that the element tagged by WAVE tool is hidden to both visual and screenreader users. Additionally the tabindex is set correctly so that keyboard-only users also do not encounter this hidden element.
    I hope this helps.
